The CERCA Sets and Minilessons chosen here support Grade 12 Engage New York Modules. We start by asking students to consider how personal identity develops in an online environment and move on to challenging students to think about the role of government in healthcare and the ethics of conscious machines. The reading and writing provided in each CERCA Set sets your classroom up for robust arguments, counterarguments, and critical reasoning.

Grade 12 Modules

Module 1: Reading and Writing Personal Narratives: “All of our experiences fuse into our personality. Everything that ever happened to us is an ingredient.”

Writing Prompt: What is the author's point of view regarding Facebook, and do the choices she makes effectively persuade readers to agree with her? Evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of her argument. (RI.11-12.2; W.11-12.1)
